Mathematicians

Euclid lived around 300 BC. This is when the central texts of the Indian religion called "Jainism" were first recorded. Also, this is when Greek pilgrims started to travel to Asclepieion to be cured for their diseases.

i really dont know so im gone bye duces

he died from a sickness that came to him and was not able to be cured

Leonhard Euler is known as a Swiss mathematician and physicist. He made many famously known accomplishments in the area of calculus and graph theory.

Nicolaus Copernicus' father was a merchant, and his mother was the daughter of a (wealthy) merchant. As they lived in the 15th century, they fit "appropriately" into society of the time and the locale (Royal Prussia) where they resided. This almost certainly means that Copernicus' mother did not "work" or have a "professional" life, per se.

The Sierpinski triangle is a fractal (named after Waclaw Sierpinski).

The base state for this fractal is a single triangle. Pick one of the vertices on the triangle and define that vertex as "pointing up" (this helps when describing the fractal without pictures).

Upon each iteration, take each triangle which is pointing up and inscribe an inverted triangle inside of it. The new triangle should have one vertex at the midpoint of each of the sides of the triangle it is in. This will effectively divide the original triangle into four equally sized triangles, three of which are oriented the same way as the original (they point up), and one of which is inverted (points down).

See the related links section for a graphical view of this fractal, as well as detail about the math behind it.

The notation of the derivative of a function f, as d(f(x)/dx or dy/dx where y=f(x) is known as the Leibnitz notation. Some books say that it is not the ratio of dy and dx, which is in fact, truly speaking, not true. The quantities dy and dx are known as the differential of y and differential of x, and their ratio in that order represents the derivative function wherever it exists. So, this notation is extremely flexible.

Carl Gauss was arguably the greatest mathematician of all times. He made important contributions to many scientific fields, including number theory, statistics, analysis, differential geometry, geodesy, geophysics, electrostatics, astronomy and optics. Gauss was called "Prince of Mathematics" and "greatest mathematician since antiquity".

He had one younger brother named Alfred Galois and a younger sister named Nathalie Galois.

1) Aryabhata (475 A.D. -550 A.D.) is the first well known Indian mathematician. Born in Kerala, he completed his studies at the university of Nalanda. In the section Ganita (calculations) of his astronomical treatise Aryabhatiya (499 A.D.), he made the fundamental advance in finding the lengths of chords of circles, by using the half chord rather than the full chord method used by Greeks. He gave the value of as 3.1416, claiming, for the first time, that it was an approximation. (He gave it in the form that the approximate circumference of a circle of diameter 20000 is 62832.) He also gave methods for extracting square roots, summing arithmetic series, solving indeterminate equations of the type ax -by = c, and also gave what later came to be known as the table of Sines. He also wrote a text book for astronomical calculations, Aryabhatasiddhanta. Even today, this data is used in preparing Hindu calendars (Panchangs). In recognition to his contributions to astronomy and mathematics, India's first satellite was named Aryabhata.

2) Brahmagupta (598 A.D. -665 A.D.) is renowned for introduction of negative numbers and operations on zero into arithmetic. His main work was Brahmasphutasiddhanta, which was a corrected version of old astronomical treatise Brahmasiddhanta. This work was later translated into Arabic as Sind Hind. He formulated the rule of three and proposed rules for the solution of quadratic and simultaneous equations. He gave the formula for the area of a cyclic quadrilateral as where s is the semi perimeter. He was the first mathematician to treat algebra and arithmetic as two different branches of mathematics. He gave the solution of the indeterminate equation Nx²+1 = y². He is also the founder of the branch of higher mathematics known as "Numerical Analysis".

After Brahmagupta, the mathematician of some consequence was Sridhara, who wrote Patiganita Sara, a book on algebra, in 750 A.D. Even Bhaskara refers to his works. After Sridhara, the most celebrated mathematician was Mahaviracharaya or Mahavira. He wrote Ganita Sara Sangraha in 850 A.D., which is the first text book on arithmetic in present day form. He is the only Indian mathematician who has briefly referred to the ellipse (which he called Ayatvrit). The Greeks, by contrast, had studied conic sections in great detail.

3) Bhaskara (1114 A.D. -1185 A.D.) or Bhaskaracharaya is the most well known ancient Indian mathematician. He was born in 1114 A.D. at Bijjada Bida (Bijapur, Karnataka) in the Sahyadari Hills. He was the first to declare that any number divided by zero is infinity and that the sum of any number and infinity is also infinity. He is famous for his book Siddhanta Siromani (1150 A.D.). It is divided into four sections -Leelavati (a book on arithmetic), Bijaganita (algebra), Goladhayaya (chapter on sphere -celestial globe), and Grahaganita (mathematics of the planets). Leelavati contains many interesting problems and was a very popular text book. Bhaskara introduced chakrawal, or the cyclic method, to solve algebraic equations. Six centuries later, European mathematicians like Galois, Euler and Lagrange rediscovered this method and called it "inverse cyclic". Bhaskara can also be called the founder of differential calculus. He gave an example of what is now called "differential coefficient" and the basic idea of what is now called "Rolle's theorem". Unfortunately, later Indian mathematicians did not take any notice of this. Five centuries later, Newton and Leibniz developed this subject. As an astronomer, Bhaskara is renowned for his concept of Tatkalikagati (instantaneous motion).

4) Srinivasa Aaiyangar Ramanujan is undoubtedly the most celebrated Indian Mathematical genius. He was born at Erode in Tamil Nadu on December 22, 1887. During an illness in England, Hardy visited Ramanujan in the hospital. When Hardy remarked that he had taken taxi number 1729, a singularly unexceptional number, Ramanujan immediately responded that this number was actually quite remarkable: it is the smallest integer that can be represented in two ways by the sum of two cubes: 1729=1³+12³=9³+10³.

Apollonius of Perga was a Holocaust victim. He was put in a concentration camp and inhaled genocide.

All reports say that she died when he was a young boy, but that's all that's known. That would place her death sometime around the mid-1470s.

He invented the Mobius Strip

The Mobius Strip is a one sided surface. It is made my twisting a strip of paper and taping the two ends together.

yes he had 10 brothers

Not a lot is known about Hipparchus, including where and how he was educated, and of he went to school.
